My Wedding

Destination Indian Wedding in Greece by Vangelis Photography

If I had to do my wedding day over again I am pretty sure I would want to have today's couples same exact wedding! Charu and Navin were married along the beaches of Santorini with Vangelis Photography by their side capturing every moment from their big day.I'm not even sure where to start when describing this wedding. Right off the bat I was taken away by Charu's mehndi which had subtle pops of blue weaved throughout. From there the pictures only got better with shots of their poolside and beachside wedding setup. Decorated with deep pink and orange fabric their mandap was a site for sore eyes against the stark blue waters- breathtaking!Make sure to visit the photo gallery to see all of the details from today's wedding!The bride shares where her groom proposed:

Navin and I actually spent 5 years in the same boarding school in Malaysia but were never friends (we just knew of each other's existence). We connected 10 years after leaving high school as we both worked in the nonprofit sector and wanted to share and learn from each other's experiences. That awkward first meeting turned into an unexpected love affair! Navin proposed in 2014 at Thermes Luxury Villas while we were on vacation in Santorini (he knows how much Greece means to me as I've been there 9 times).

Charu looked gorgeous being escorted down the aisle in her pink, orange and green lengha. The guys ensembles were perfect for a outdoor destination wedding with pops of orange and blue!Charu shares:

Thankfully, Navin too fell in love with Greece and although we both wanted to get married in Greece, we knew it wasn't going to be the most convenient location for our family and friends. Fortunately, our attempt to have the wedding at other 'practical' locations didn't work out and as soon as we discovered Poema Weddings, we knew a wedding at the exact spot Navin proposed was now a very real possibility. It really felt as though the entire universe had conspired to make our Greek wedding dream a reality!

Everything about this reception decor is perfect. From the open villa concept, dark floors paired with light linens and all of the added personalized details made this reception one to remember. I love how they hung the escort cards from a vintage room seperater and added cute signage to their bar. To top it off the bride and groom made sure to leave their mark with a spectacular fireworks show!Thank you so much to Vangelis Photography for submitting this stunning wedding. I know it's not one I will soon forget!
